The choice / Penny Hancock.

Hancock, Penny, (author.).

Summary:

Sometimes even the smallest decisions can have huge consequences ... Renee Gulliver appears to have it all: a beautiful house overlooking a scenic estuary on England's east coast, a successful career as a relationship therapist, three grown-up children and a beloved grandson, Xavier. But then Xavier vanishes after Renee fails to pick him up from school, and the repercussions are manifold. Renee is wracked with remorse; the local community questions her priorities; clients abandon her; and, as long-held grievances surface, her daughter Mia offers her a heartbreaking ultimatum. Amid recriminations, misunderstandings and lies, can Renee find a way to reunite her family?
